Screenings of award-winning documentary PRESUMED GUILTY set for next week in New Orleans, Las Vegas

Film exposes new allegations of Swiss prosecutorial misconduct in the case connected with Belgian Jacques de Groote, 89, a former high ranking representative of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and World Bank.

Following successful screenings in Switzerland, London and Brussels, the award-winning documentary PRESUMED GUILTY will be screened in the U.S. next week in both New Orleans and Las Vegas.

PRESUMED GUILTY is an award-winning documentary that exposes new allegations of Swiss prosecutorial misconduct in the case connected with Belgian Jacques de Groote, 89, a former high ranking representative of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and World Bank.

The case known as “MUS affaire” involves not only Swiss prosecutors, IMF, World Bank representatives and globally recognized politicians (i.e. former U.S. President George H.W. Bush), but also global business structures like the Carlyle Group. The story involves capitalization of unique historical opportunities brought by economic transition in Central Europe after the fall of Communism in the 90s and billion dollar fines Swiss authorities imposed on Central European entrepreneurs.

On February 15, Oscar Goodman, legendary Las Vegas mayor and and criminal defense attorney, will host a screening of PRESUMED GUILTY at the Mob and Law Enforcement Museum.Gold and Star Films, a prominent film company not associated with the film, will co-host the New Orleans screening on Monday, Feb. 13, at the Joy Theatre, a theater and historic landmark built in 1947 on Canal Street in downtown New Orleans.

Attending and co-hosting is political journalist and activist Chuck Muth of Citizen Outreach and Muth’s Truths. The event begins at 4pm for a very private screening hosted by Mayor Goodman. Media is invited.

Following the event will be cocktails hosted by Mayor Goodman and Chuck Muth at Oscar’s Beef Booze & Broads–Mayor Goodman’s restaurant.

American Film producer Terry O’keefe will be present at both screenings to answer any questions.
